Welcome to the Field Guide to the Shores of Rhode Island!


This online guide is designed as an introduction to many of the organisms that are commonly found in Rhode Island's coastal habitats.  It has been designed to serve as a reference material for Marine Biology students in the Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Rhode Island, but may be useful to other individuals as well.

The guide is in the preliminary stages of development and only two habitats have been developed to date: rocky shore and salt marsh.  We plan to expand the guide to include more organisms and habitats in the future.
